This dataset contains satellite telemetry location data collected from a Wildlife Computers SPLASH10 tag (ptt 39489) deployed on a bearded seal (Erignathus barbatus) by Peter Boveng and Josh M London in the Arctic Ocean, Bering Sea, and Chukchi Sea from 2011-06-16 to 2012-04-01. The data were collected as part of the A Dataset from Bio-loggers Deployed on Adult Bearded Seals (Erignathus barbatus) in Kotzebue Sound, Alaska, USA, 2009-2012 project by the NOAA Alaska Fisheries Science Center. These data are submitted as netCDF files to the National Centers for Environmental Information (NCEI) for the Integrated Ocean Observing System's (IOOS) Animal Telemetry Network (ATN) Data Assembly Center by Axiom Data Science.
